What happens to Washington Redskins training center when team leaves town?

RICHMOND, Va. (WTVR) – The Washington Redskins were in town to show off their brand new Richmond training camp on Monday. Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell, Richmond Mayor Dwight Jones and Redskins representatives were on hand to officially open the Bon Secours Washington Redskins Training Center.

The Washington Redskins are set to take the field, near the Science Museum of Virginia, on July 25 when training camp begins.

The team broke ground in February on the $11 million facility.

Redskins training camp will only last three weeks each year. So what will the site be used for the rest of the time? Casadonte posed that question to Mayor Jones.
